    Found the white paper published by the '‘State Council Information Office of the PRC’. The paper indicates that China cooperated with WHO in doing multi-year, thorough virus origin-tracing and that while they were doing that, the US gov was instead just slandering China and making unsupported conclusions about the virus origins. The paper then says that maybe it originated in the US because the US gov is not cooperating with WHO to perform a thorough, multi-year virus origin-tracing project as well - it reads more like them egging the US on to cooperate with WHO than actually saying it originated in the US.

  • Sci-fi writer Ursula Leguin wrote a book about an anarcho-syndicalistic society called The Dispossessed. In that book, those who ‘opted out’ of this society were barred from enjoying the fruits of the collective labor but could still live on the outskirts and start their own subsistence farm or whatever. Societal control in that story was basically maintained through personal relationships among the community (shame those who don’t want to contribute) whereas the capitalistic society control method is threaten with death by restricting access to resources (home,food,water,etc). I’m not saying public shaming is the best route, but it’s still more humane than work or die.
